Leadership Team

The International Leadership Team is responsible for managing the work of ATD Fourth World around the world.

Members of the International Leadership Team are chosen under the responsibility of ATD Fourth World’s international Volunteer Corps. They are then elected by its General Assembly and serve renewable four-year terms.

Together with ATD Fourth World’s Executive Board, the International Leadership Team is responsible for coordinating ATD worldwide, both sparking creative initiatives, and helping to sustain the collective will of our members, particularly for those whose commitment is a life-long choice.

In particular, they are responsible for the evaluation planning process that leads, every four years, to choosing our guidelines and priorities: Our 2013-2017 Common Ambitions.

To carry out its mission, the International Leadership Team is supported by:

Six regional delegations, named by the International Leadership Team for Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Mideast, North America, and the Indian Ocean. Each of these regional delegations supports our action and members there and develops exchanges and common projects between regions and with the International Leadership Team.
